Given Olympique Marseille's poor form, rumours began to circulate on Saturday that the French club were considering the possibility of handing the job to former Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde.
But, in any case, it would be at the end of this season, as the contract of André Villas-Boas, who publicly acknowledged the support of the directors, expires in June 2021.
As the newspaper 'Marca' points out, the possible arrival of Ernesto Valverde in the summer seems more than difficult, as the coach from Extremadura is reported to have set a condition: he wants to fight for titles.
And at the moment, it seems that OM will hardly be able to fight for anything next season. The former coach wants a competitive team and could rule out a possible offer from the French side.
